ESA

ESA is a vision exploring Europe's future in space and the future benefits of satellites for people and developing new strategies by means of mutual projects. ESA, founded in 1975, also conducts the work for developing powerful launchers and new spacecrafts together with aero-space industries, national space agencies, and the satellite operators of the member states. Ariane rockets, developed by ESA, have created a commercial market of space launchers for telecommunication satellites in particular. ESA pioneers researches for earth ozone observation, ice cover, ocean winds, etc. In this context, Meteosat, providing daily meteorological changes in Europe and Africa, has also been developed by ESA.
